Yeah. Frankly, if my company gets spied by MS it’s their fault. I don’t care.

Everything I put in my Teams has been accessible by my company anyway, and so I use that shit accordingly.



So tired. These Nazis should be called out for what they are.


Therefore there is a real threat that the required majority for mass scanning of private communications may be achieved at any time under the current Hungarian presidency (Hungary being a supporter of the proposal).

Why did they let this Hungarian pro-Nazi idiot regime lead anything?


My online activities. I don’t want the attacker to identify them with me. Well, it’s never perfect, but yeah. I don’t really care about personalized ads. m

I’d even prefer them over stupid semi-pornographic ads for the average person. I don’t know other countries but nearly all Japanese websites are full of such semi-porns to the level I wouldn’t screen-share my webbrowser…


Okay I will learn more about self-hosted streaming options and hit spouses on the street.


Great, but wasn’t it the case that majority in the EC supported it? Did it suddenly become a minority position?


All spouses can

Sorry, did you sleep with my spouse or what?


Problem is, wife is the one who insists on having TVs and I know she won’t use Jellyfin.



Stupid regulation, honestly. Exact matches are implementable but further than that… Aren’t they basically banning e2ee at this point?

Now I see why Signal will close in EU.


My bad. But that phrasing is super stupid, honestly. What company would want to promise to detect new child sex abuse material? Impossible to avoid false negatives.



My guess was that this law was going to permit something as simple as pixel matching. Honestly I don’t imagine they can codify in the law something more sophisticated. Companies don’t want false positives either, at the very least due to profits.



They say they the images are merely matched to pre-determined images found on the web. You’re talking about a different scenario where AI detects inappropriate contents in an image.

Yes, I agree it is dangerous. I just wanted to assess the actual threat (current and future) before jumping onto the wagon.


Article 10a, which contains the upload moderation plan, states that these technologies would be expected “to detect, prior to transmission, the dissemination of known child sexual abuse material or of new child sexual abuse material.”

This is what I guessed the other day when a post here didn’t clarify what the censorship meant.

While I’m not a fan of this stupid regulation, it doesn’t sound like being the armageddon that turns e2ee into ashes.

(Given that Signal doesn’t like it, I might be wrong though.)

As long as we trust, say, Signal, it will possibly be able to do the scan without sending a good chunk of the image data that the user is sending. URLs can be hashed before sending it to the scanner.

The remaining piece for privacy is to use open source and to guarantee that the binaries are free of modification from the original. This problem always existed on the Apple ecosystem btw.


I think proton was never going to function as a profit-first business. Too many enshittified rival businesses. Kinda the natural outcome.




Not precise. They can dynamically generate the video stream from the ad-free original.


I don’t think Apple is planning that. For now they’re trying the approach to expose metadata like email headers to their AI, but that such data has been already accessible to the search functionality anyway.

It’s very different from Recall, which dumps screen capture of webpages and passwords into a database file that’s only protected by access rights.


I’m okay IF the ads were only from novels of my liking. Never gonna happen though…


I don’t fully trust any app, and yet I think that this trend on privacy policy in app stores is pointless.

I just want to see (and tune) the sandbox options. Like, can I block this app from sending certain information to servers?


XReal glasses shut everything off and mirrors your phone already.



You’re right, but I was talking specifically about blogs.


But… have we ever had privacy with blog articles? I mean the public ones.


I think you should clarify the problem first.

Privacy? You lose your privacy the moment you publish your blog anyway.

Is it visibility? You never expected Google to show your blog in most cases.

AI training? You could self-host and hope companies respect your robot.txt. But what’s the actual problem if you released your blog to the public in the first place? Anybody could’ve copy & pasted your blog also before this AI era.


I guess it’s the usual Russian propaganda tactic throughout Telegram. Mixing conspiracy theories with half-truths.

The NSA indeed distributed a defected encryption library in the past. These days I’m pretty sure big techs use open source encryption to avoid this trap.

And Telegram says blah, blah, iPhone is exploited. But IF Telegram is correct on this one, Andriod versions would be defect as well.


This is a weird pattern because Apple can’t listen to its own power users (of macs). Tim Cook is criticized by them for caring only about money. Yet he still is on the purity train. Yeah, it’s probably all about their stock holders.




Edit: okay, deep fake. That’s bad. The title is the problem for me, then.

Sorry, what’s the actual problem with users creating fantasy porn? How about they ban all traditional drawings apps and photo / video editing apps, then? Those can also produce nudes. Oh, and browsers also. And text editors.


banned by the state

Forgot that part… It’s crazy that a bunch of lizard brains ruling an idiotic party can literally dictate people’s life.


Just tell her there’s email. If she insists on WeChat… Maybe she’s… err…

I mean, a messaging app isn’t suited for a back up. Just throw her phone into the toilet, and many such apps are gone forever.


Still on iCloud, Google Drive and OneDrive. No way these people know how to store photos offline on their phone.


Ah… I think I will ban cache for sites in my black list like Medium.
